Chapter 1199: Farewell
Before the plan to rescue Shangguan Cheng and assassinate Xiao Yan had not yet begun, he continued to encounter various accidents, and Nie Zeng stayed by Gu Shenwei's side all day to observe how he responded, and the results shocked him.
This is indeed not the dragon king of six years ago, he no longer holds everything firmly in his hands, and almost treats the endless accidents with a laissez-faire attitude, and all he repeatedly talks about is a sentence, "as long as it does not affect the action ...... at night"
The first accident was the farewell of Tie Linglong and Chu Nanping, which did not have much impact on the action, but the way the two said goodbye was a bit unusual: leaving a letter, almost saying goodbye.
The letter was written by Tie Linglong, the handwriting was hasty, she apologized to Gu Shenwei on behalf of the two of them, but they didn't help, but became a burden, so they could only leave quietly, Yunyun.
When Nie Zeng saw this letter, there was a faint burst of anger in his heart, didn't he become part of the dispute last night? But they just left, not saying a word to themselves, let alone saying hello.
The anger was like a sudden emberfire in the ashes, unexpectedly, and disappeared quickly, Nie Zeng found himself calm, his infatuation with Tie Linglong, like the hatred for the Dragon King back then, became worthless after seeing the facts.
In the depths of the grassland, someone was waiting for him, and even this was not particularly important, Nie Zeng put the letter back on the table and said to Gu Shenwei: "I hope Chu Nanping can get rid of the knot in his heart as soon as possible." ”
Gu Shenwei acted even more indifferent, his expression was a little relaxed, as if he had really gotten rid of the "burden", "The knot in my heart can't be shaken off, Chu Nanping will be good and bad, but as long as Tie Linglong is by his side, he will spend his life safely." ”
Nie Zeng couldn't understand, he had never seen or even heard of someone breaking down for no reason, he shook his head slightly. Without asking, he thought, no wonder several masters regarded the kung fu of the proud building as very evil and avoided it, and there were really strange things in it.
The second accident was brought by someone else, and Kinmen Pass was actually threatened from the rear. This caused panic among the residents inside and outside the city, who first waited and inquired about all kinds of gossip, and gradually became dissatisfied, and after a night, it finally broke out, and hundreds of residents, including some soldiers dressed in civilian clothes, ran to the gate of the official residence. Angrily shouting to drive all the troublesome guests out of town.
This accident was resolved quickly, and as soon as the shouting outside, Qin Yeming hurriedly ran in to report the news, and Chen Jinke from the Kongtong faction immediately followed, "It's okay, the officers and soldiers have dispersed the crowd, it's just a rabble." ”
Officers and soldiers came too quickly. Even Nie Zeng immediately guessed that there was something else, and sure enough, it was true. The officer who led the troops took this opportunity to come over to meet, first carefully inquired about the relationship between Gu Shenwei and the others and the imperial court, and after gaining nothing, he made a polite suggestion, "Does Gu Gongzi want to go back to the Western Regions? Just leave it to the defenders to deal with, she thought that she could run rampant in the Central Plains, that was a big mistake. ”
Although he was very brave, the officer's meaning was still very obvious: with only two or three thousand garrisons, there was no certainty of defeating ten thousand Beiting cavalry. I hope to send the hot potato away.
Gu Shenwei also politely refused, "The late pain is better than the early pain, the Xiao Yan clan will want to kill me, even if I return to the Western Regions, I can't avoid it, it is better to take this opportunity to solve it completely." ”
The officer's disappointment was beyond words, Gu Shenwei asked Chen Jinke to send him out, and the Kongtong faction would make the officers and soldiers change their minds, before getting the imperial seal, from King Xiao to Zihe Zhenren, they didn't want Gu Shenwei to leave the Central Plains.
Just after noon, a third accident occurred, Han Fen ran away, and also took Qin Yeming with him, to be precise, he "carried" away.
Many people saw that Gu Shenwei's waiter had no power to resist and was helplessly lifted with his belt, Han Fen, as always, greeted familiar and unfamiliar people warmly, and every time he asked Qin Yeming to raise his head and give the other party a look, "I'll take him out for a walk." ”
After "strolling" three streets, the two disappeared, and even the golden tiger, who knew everything about the Golden Gate, couldn't inquire about their whereabouts.
Gu Shenwei still didn't show a trace of impatience after getting the news, he just shook his head, "Nonsense, it's really nonsense, but it won't affect tonight's action......"
Nie Zeng couldn't help but be suspicious, many years ago, he had been granted permission to ask the Dragon King everything for a certain period of time, but in the six years in Beiting, he had already developed the habit of being taciturn, so he buried his doubts in his heart, and even had some expectations, feeling that Gu Shenwei would surprise everyone again.
He was not the only one who was puzzled, Miao Sanwen and Zihe Zhenren came over to knock on the side one after another, and Gu Shenwei said: "Don't worry, although Han Fen is messing around, she will never take refuge in Xiao Yan's family, she will not disclose the plan, everything is as usual, in my plan, there is no place for her." ”
"Is it okay for Qin Yeming to leave?" Zihe Zhenren asked.
"It's a little bit of a problem, but it's not big. Gu Shenwei glanced at Nie Zeng, as if to say that this was the only helper he really needed.
Zihe Zhenren laughed, "Who else is better at assassination than you?" By the way, the Locke swordsmen have also moved into the city, and they have already found their foothold, and I will take people to monitor them as soon as it gets dark. Ah, I'm a little bit eager to try it, like I'm twenty years younger, no, fifty. ”
As soon as the matter was settled, Su Ai came over to ask for a meeting, he came to ask if there was a task to be given to him, and after getting a negative answer, he also had to leave, becoming the only person who resigned in person on this day, "I heard the news that the Western Regions Mission has left the capital, and it is possible to bump into the army of the Xiao Yan clan, I have to go and remind me." ”
Gu Shenwei agreed, he had seen Su Ai's light skills, and knew that he had the ability to bypass Xiao Yan's military camp.
Although Nie Zeng didn't look up, he observed very carefully, he believed that Su Ai's words were sincere, there were no outsiders in the room, and there was really no need to act.
Miao Sanwen and Shi Qingjue respectively sent people out of the city to survey the terrain, and after they came back, they came over to discuss and make the plan more detailed.
Nie Zeng listened to it, thinking that tonight's plan was also true, and the Dragon King wanted to make full use of the "allies" before they betrayed.
Because of the large number of details involved, the discussion took a long time and did not end until the evening, which is at this time. Another accident happened: Shangguan Fei and Nangong Bad escaped.
Finding out that the two of them disappeared was an accident in itself, Jin Hu was most familiar with Jinmen Pass, Miao San asked him to come over for a consultation, but the disciples sent out couldn't find anyone anywhere, and only after inquiring did he know that half an hour ago, Jin Hu and Shangguan Fei went out together. Haven't come back yet.
Shi Qingjue personally went to check the room and found that the room was empty, and no one saw how Nangong Bad left the house.
Things are a little troublesome at this time, and none of the people who left before have the possibility of taking refuge in Xiao Yan's family, but these two people are very likely, especially Nangong Bad, she is definitely willing to use Xiao Yan's family to take revenge on Shi Qingjue.
Gu Shenwei could no longer say that the matter had no impact on the plan, but he put forward a speculation. "Shangguan Fei has his purpose in taking away the Golden Tiger. ”
"What is the purpose? Isn't it how to get out of the city gate and go to join the Xiao Yan clan?" Miao Sanwen was very annoyed, and his hard-won plan had to be abandoned, "The golden tiger is really useless, he was actually hijacked by a coward, and when he went out, everyone could rescue him by shouting." ”
Gu Shenwei shook his head, "If it's just to take refuge in the Xiao Yan clan." There is no need to hijack the Golden Tiger, Shangguan Fei is going back to the Western Regions. ”
Miao Sanwen patted the case. "That's right, this kid Jin Hu always brags about how familiar he is with Jinmen Pass, claiming to know several secret passages in and out of the Western Regions, Shangguan Fei must have heard it, so ...... I'll come when I go. ”
Miao Sanwen hurriedly ran out, and Nie Zeng guessed that he was going to find Ji Fuwei.
"Jin Hu is not the only one who is familiar with Kinmen Pass. I'll send someone else to look for it, and I'll hear from it soon. Miao San said confidently after he came back.
Sure enough, a local snake in Kinmen Pass claimed that he had just sent Jin Hu and the other two out of the pass to the Western Regions.
Miao San asked if he wanted to send someone to chase after him, but Gu Shenwei took out that sentence again, "As long as it doesn't affect tonight's action......"
The deliberations are over. Preparations continue on all sides.
Nie Zeng saw everything in his eyes, and no longer felt that the successive accidents were really unexpected, first Tie Linglong and Chu Nanping, then Han Fen and Qin Yeming, and finally Shangguan Fei and Nangong Bad, Su Ai also resigned, the departure of these people must be related.
Nie Zeng is not a talkative person, so he didn't ask, he didn't think too much, just waited for Gu Shenwei to assign tasks to him.
The others didn't think so, but only one person came over to ask Gu Shen face to face.
Chen Jinke was in charge of contacting the garrison of Kinmen Pass, and he went in and out many times this day, so his arrival would not attract attention, he came over and said that the Zihe real person was ready, and he would soon set off to spy on the Luo family swordsman, but after saying that, the person refused to leave.
"Is there anything else?" asked Gu Shenwei.
"A little. Chen Jinke was a little restrained, as if he didn't feel worthy to ask about it, "The old fairy asked me to ask, who did Gu Gongzi hand over the imperial seal?"
Nie Zeng suddenly realized that Zihe Zhenren suspected that Gu Shen was suspicious, but he actually took the imperial seal away.
"If the Kongtong faction believes me, the thing is in my hands, and if you don't believe it, it is at the ends of the earth. ”
Chen Jinke bowed respectfully, and it was not Gu Shenwei who made him restrained, but the head of Zihe Zhenren, "The old immortal let me make a judgment, I believe in Gu Gongzi." ”
"Thank you. ”
"So I want to tell Gu Gongzi the truth, Ji Fuwei, the head of the Songshan faction, is mixed in the heroes of the rivers and lakes outside, and he came by order of King Xiao, Miao San asked them about the so-called defection to the general is actually a lie, please be careful with Gu Gongzi. ”
Gu Shenwei had already heard the truth from Nie Zeng, but he showed the right surprise, raised his head slightly, was silent for a moment, and said: "It's all for the imperial seal, please tell the real person, I remember the advice, and I remember the protection of the Kongtong faction in the past six years." ”
Chen Jinke bowed again and exited the room.
Gu Shenwei sat for a while, and suddenly said to Nie Zeng, "Let's go." ”
Nie Zeng nodded and said nothing.
"You're from Beiting, and I have to promise you a little favor. ”
"No, I volunteered. Nie Zeng was stunned, observation is harvest, he never thought of getting something in return from Gu Shenwei.
But the benefits offered by Gu Shenwei were something he could not refuse.
"You were ordered to kill the lotus girl, and you will be allowed to do so tonight, and then you can go back to the grassland. ”
"However, we are not going to assassinate ......" Nie Zeng also bowed deeply like Chen Jinke.
